    But the Prize Budget for Boys published Pac-Mondrian on the web in 2002, although the game itself was finished in 2001. We didn't finish the physical cabinet til early 2004, but the old Galaga cabinet sat in my living room for at least a year and a half before we got around to putting a computer in it and painting it.

    There's a press release in the rhizome.org archive dated 2002-12-03:

    The Prize Budget For Boys
    Nothing is True. Everything is Permuted.

    PBFB just opened their Clubhouse at PrizeBudgetForBoys.com where you can find fun stuff like Pac-Mondrian, DIY Duchamp Rotoreliefs, the Clubhouse PooCam (requires registration), LadyKiller: A Fratricidal Romance, and A Supplement to The Illustrated Gude to Child Pornography Laws in North America. In an effort to collapse the distance between the art object and its critical reception, PBFB includes a comment page for every piece of art on the site. Come see the Clubhouse and become a PBFB Member today!

    Ideas. Energy. Execution.

    This person claims provenance over the idea too:

    "This is what Mondriaan is all about. I once made a copy of one of Mondriaan's paintings with the pacman icons painted on the lines, but this Pac-Mondrian is the real thing, it moves and plays music."
